After rebirth, I cried and criticized the prince

Chapter 120 Send Supplements

"Zhu Feng, please prepare some supplements for me and send them to Helan Mansion."

"But is it for Miss Helan?"

"What else?" Gu Shicheng was calm and composed in the study. He had been in turmoil all night long. He had been suffering from all kinds of pain since his rebirth. Could it be that God wanted to play a joke on him and make him go through unspeakable pain again?

He figured it out last night. God was giving him a chance not to repeat the same mistakes, and he had let go of his originally paranoid and wrong love.

Now he thought that he had Helan Xuenuo in his heart, and she had loved him so purely before. She had also started over again. The past was like a dream. As long as he was willing to bow his head, she would definitely give him another chance and forgive him. He hoped that from this moment on, everything would be in time...

Zhufeng was puzzled. What had happened overnight to cause such a change in his master? But what about the lanterns last night? Could it be that Miss Helan had expressed her love for him on them? He scratched his head, thinking. No wonder there was always tension between these two.

"Your Highness, are you attracted to Miss Helan? No wonder I always feel that there's something weird between you two." Zhufeng looked at Gu Shicheng with a rare teasing look.

Gu Shicheng also changed his indifferent expression and said, "Strange?"

"Hmm...you and that girl from the Helan family always make your subordinates think you two are old acquaintances. You clearly told them that your sweetheart is the concubine, so how did it become Miss Helan?"

"The past is in the past. I just hope that everything will be in time in the future."

Gu Shicheng felt a different feeling in his heart, as refreshing as a breeze. He no longer felt depressed and uncomfortable. Even Zhufeng could see the difference between him and Helan Xuenuo. He asked curiously, "What do you think Helan looks at me with?"

Is it love? Is it jealousy?

Zhu Feng swallowed and said, "Murderous intent. When did you ever offend her, Your Majesty? I always feel like I'm looking at you as if you were the murderer of my father."

Gu Shicheng's face turned cold, and a hint of icy intent came from it. Zhufeng had followed Gu Shicheng for many years and understood Gu Shicheng's temperament. He immediately lowered his head and said, "Zhufeng, go and deliver the supplements right away."

"Wait a minute..."

Zhufeng stopped and broke into a cold sweat. He thought he had said something wrong. He wondered if the prince would torture him to death.

"If you ask why I sent you supplements, just say that Helan fell into the water last night. This prince and the concubine were there. The concubine was once the adopted daughter of the Helan family. She should take care of her sister and help her eat more supplements to avoid catching typhoid fever."

Zhufeng breathed a sigh of relief, fortunately he was not broken. He replied well and ran away.

The southern courtyard of Helan Mansion.

Helan Xuenuo crossed her arms and paced back and forth, her mind racing. She stopped in front of the table and stared at the supplements piled on it. She picked up a bird's nest bowl and examined it carefully. She turned to look at Xiaozhu, "Are you sure it was Prince Ding'an who sent the supplements?"

"That's absolutely right. The person who came was indeed sent by Prince Ding'an. He specifically said that the girl fell into the water last night and he was worried that she would catch a cold, so he sent some supplements."

"So kind?" Helan Xuenuo was completely baffled. Gu Shicheng had always been aloof, so why would he care about her? And since he was so ruthless, how could he care about her life or death?

Could it be?

Could it be poisoned?

She was startled and dropped the bird's nest bowl she was holding... Gu Shicheng wasn't even hiding anymore? Was he going to kill her openly? She frowned and said in disgust, "Stew it and feed it to the mad dog. Isn't there a mad dog in the mansion recently that's been biting several people one after another? Just feed it to the mad dog."

------------

In a flash, the two of them appeared in front of a cage. Inside the cage was a mad dog, staring at them warningly with its red eyes.

When Xiao Zhu approached the cage with the stewed bird's nest, the mad dog started barking wildly. Xiao Zhu took a step back in fear and turned to look at Helan Xuenuo, "Girl... I'm scared..."

Helan Xuenuo teased, "You are fearless on a daily basis, so why should you be afraid of a vicious dog?" She walked over, took the bird's nest from Xiaozhu's hand, stuffed it into the cage, and quickly pulled her hand back.

When the mad dog saw the food, he no longer cared about the two of them and lowered his head to start licking it.

Xiao Zhu said regretfully, "It's a bit of a waste to feed a mad dog with the things sent by annoying people. Girl, why not feed Xiao Zhu next time."

"I'm afraid I'll die eating..."

"Miss, do you suspect poisoning?" Xiao Zhu's face was filled with fear, but she then comforted him, "No way... The person who came said that the Helan Mansion had adopted Miss Qi and was there when they saw you fall into the water, so they sent you supplements. They wouldn't dare to drug you so blatantly..."

"It's important to be on guard against others. Have you forgotten? Even if it wasn't Prince Ding'an, the concubine in the palace was like a madman. I wouldn't be surprised by what she could do. If I just died like this... Prince Ding'an cherished her so much, I'm afraid she wouldn't be implicated even if I died."

"Well...Miss, you are more thoughtful and considerate..."

The mad dog licked for a while...then lay down on the cage.

Both of their hearts suddenly skipped a beat. Xiao Zhu breathed a sigh of relief. Fortunately, she didn't eat it, otherwise she would be lying here now.

Helan Xuenuo was surprised, "He's crazy... killing people openly!"

Just as the two were terrified, the mad dog climbed up again and continued to lick them.

It was a false alarm. It turned out that he was just lying down for a while because he was tired from eating.

Xiao Zhusong laughed, "Girl, are you hysterical? I told you, how could you kill someone so brazenly?"

Helan Xuenuo shook her head and sighed, "I'm just too suspicious. If you had experienced what I've experienced, you would also have doubts."

Xiao Zhu nodded. It was not surprising that Qi Didi, such a vicious person, could do such a thing, and the girl's worries were normal.

She felt a little sorry for the girl. She was obviously the jewel in the hands of General Helan and his wife, but she still suffered so much bullying. If the girl was not smart, they would have fallen into Qi Didi's trap long ago, and they might have been scolded by others.

On the way back to the South Courtyard, Helan Xuenuo said nothing, feeling even more heavy-hearted. If the drug wasn't given, why would Master Gu send the tonic?

And...it was true that he jumped into the moat to save her last night.

why?

There was confusion in his eyes.

Xiao Zhu touched her chin and said, "But...what are these supplements for?" She widened her eyes and exclaimed, "Could it be...could it be that Prince Ding'an likes girls?"

Helan Xuenuo chuckled and shook her head, immediately denying the idea. In her previous life, she tried her best to please Master Gu, but he never even looked at her. She was afraid that he had other motives.

No matter what, she must take precautions and not make the same mistake again.

Regaining her senses, she thought for a moment and replied, "Qi Didi was here last night. She helped Wen Yulan and the others bully me. She already has a bad reputation, and she's probably afraid this incident will make it even worse... Giving her some supplements and restoring some of her reputation is a good deal, no matter how you look at it. ... Prince Ding'an truly cares deeply about protecting his wife."

Xiao Zhu said distressedly, "Fortunately, Master Yuan is here. If the girl had drowned, I would have killed them."

The two of them walked slowly up the Nine-Curved Corridor. Helan Xuenuo leaned against the corridor and looked at the scenery in the garden. She smiled and said, "Yes, fortunately Yuan Xu is here."

"Miss, Master Yuan saved you, don't you have any thanks?"

"Show?" Helan Xuenuo suddenly remembered that she should do something. "Why don't we invite Yuan Xu to dinner at Wenxianglou tomorrow?"

"Great! I can help Shopkeeper Wen research new dishes."

"Go and deliver a letter to the Yuan Mansion, inviting Yuan Xu to meet at Wenxiang Tower tomorrow."
